The Origins Space Telescope: mission concept overview

David Leisawitz, +86 more
- 24 Jul 2018 - 
TL;DR: The OST study team will present a scientifically compelling, executable mission concept to the 2020 Decadal Survey in Astrophysics and study two alternative mission concepts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Origins Space Telescope: baseline mission concept

David Leisawitz, +97 more
TL;DR: The Origins Space Telescope as mentioned in this paper was designed to trace the history of our origins from the time dust and heavy elements permanently altered the cosmic landscape to present-day life, and it was the first telescope to operate at mid-and far-infrared (IR) wavelengths.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Thermal considerations and architecture for Origins Space telescope (Conference Presentation)

TL;DR: This paper will discuss the main elements of OST’s thermal design, cooling, parasitics and thermal verification, and include a discussion of how to modify the JWST for application in the far infra-red.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

SAFIR architecture concept

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a single aperture, far infrared red observatory (SAIR) with a 12-m diameter on-axis Gregorian telescope, which provides the wide fields of view desired by the SAFIR science team.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Efficient Heat Transfer Methods in a Hybrid Solar Thermal Power System for the FSPOT-X Project

TL;DR: The FSPOT-X project as discussed by the authors aims to maximize the exergy generated from AM 1.5 sunlight by integrating and demonstrating multiple technologies, and aims to efficiently convert photons to electrons maximizing heat transfer efficiency across system element interfaces.
